hmmm, well, that looks a little better

I gather you're playing with something in your signature? Why not post the code you're trying and somebody cantell you why it's doing what it does.

Oh.
Well, I took something I saw in another thread here in the how to forum, and fiddled around with it till it came out somwhat like I wanted. I don't know HTML, so I just find other peoples stuff and mess with it till it produces results that I like.
I got it from that old thread titled Weird Harold ...need your help one more time
http://www.literotica.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=78922
Firesprite wanted a sig like bad kitty's, only with the quote on one side of the pic.
I used the one bad kitty posted, but it came out all wrong, so I had to adapt it slipshod till it fit. Here's what bad kitty posted.

<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" border="1" width="375" align="Center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td valign="Middle" align="Center">
<div align="Center">
<img src="">
</div>
</td>
<td valign="Middle" align="Center">
<img src="">
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table></center>

After I tried it, I didn't like the boxes, or the sizes of the boxes.
If you'll recall, In your other thread in how to, I once asked how to get the quote directly to the right of the pic in the sig, instead of underneath it.
As you can see, I kinda got it to look like what I wanted. Now I just need to figure out how to get rid of all the empty space above it, and then get that report this post to a mod and logged ip address thingy back on the bottom.

What code do you have in your signature now that's distorting the signature field? I suspect you've left off a closing tag somewhere.

Here's what I've got in there right now.

<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="495" align="Left">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td valign="Middle" align="Center">
<div align="Center">
<img src=" {url}http://www.literotica.com/forum/attachment.php?s=&postid=1629955{/url}">
</div>
</td>
<td valign="Middle" align="Left">
{size=1}{COLOR=firebrick}“He who fights monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster…When you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you…” ~Neitzsche{/COLOR}{/size}
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table></center>


*Note: I had to replace [ with { so that it would show.*

Try valign="TOP" in place of "middle"

You don't need the URL tags or the leading space after the quotation mark in the IMG Src line.

The </Center> is not needed and may be what is messing up the signature field.
 
Hmmm, nope.
I don't know if it was replacing the middle with top, or deleting the </center>, but now its even further from the bottom of the sig, and there quote is alightly above the image.
Lemme play around with it a bit more...

There's two occurances of Valign. You have to change both to the same thing.

Try changing to Valign="bottom" on both.
 
Hmmm, yes.
I replaced them both, and also after that, tried bottom.
Bottom worked on the quote, but for some reason, it didn't move the image all the way down, thus the current results...
 
This is tested, and is about the best that can be done using a table within the table that is the BB format.

----
<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="80%" align="Center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td valign="top" align="Center">
<div align="Center">
<img src="http://www.literotica.com/forum/attachment.php?s=&postid=1629955>
</div>
</td>
<td valign="top" align="left">
{size=1]{COLOR=firebrick]“He who fights monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster…When you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you…” ~Neitzsche[/COLOR][/size]

</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

That still leaves the gap above the table, but doesn't squash the BB links off to the side.
 
Man, too bad. That space at the top was what I was trying to get rid of...And squashing the BB links to the side? Hmmm, doesn't do that on mine...maybe cause the size of our screens are different?
Oh well, thanks! :)
I'll try it now.
 
Thanks for all the help WH.
I decided to change it back to the left instead of the centre.

Hi, Just want to test adding an attachment, a pic if you will. I've tried a couple of times but I can't get it to work. I'll try again here. If anyone has the secret to adding it, please let me know. Does the number of postings have anything to do with adding attachments?

The most common problem with posting attachments, is DO NOT preview the post, or add the attachment after you preview it.
